Handsome home organizer Ted has a double dilemma. As a devoted husband, he’s struggling to resist the charm and seductive flirtations of Janet, a divorced client. Circumstances keep bringing her back into his life, fueling his wife’s suspicions and inciting threats from Janet’s jealous ex-husband. Ted must also deal with the ire of James Smith, a demanding client who is convinced his eccentric father died leaving something of great value hidden in his cluttered and mysterious Victorian mansion. Together , Ted and Janet interpret clues that lead to two surprising discoveries—one that captures the imagination of the city, and one that determines their fate.
When I was in college, I told my father I wanted to become an author. He said, "writing is a great back-up skill to have for a real job." He was right. I have been in corporate communications and agency public relations most of my life. I was in my fifties when I wrote my first book, CUSS CONTROL, a light-hearted but thought-provoking book on civility, effective communications, and presenting a positive image.
My wife and I have our own PR firm, and we won three awards for the best publicity program in the country for promoting CUSS CONTROL. I appeared on more than 100 TV shows, including Oprah, The View, CBS Sunday Morning, The Early Show, the Today Show, etc. I was also in hundreds of magazines and newspapers, and interviewed on hundreds of radio stations in 7 countries. We now specialize in book publicity. Visit www.oconnorpr.com.
"Another Man's Treasure," my mystery/romance novel, was published in September 2011. It's about fidelity and temptation, and generosity and greed. I wrote it with women readers in mind, but have discovered that men like it even more.
